For my most recent application I submitted an Europass resume. It embeds an xml with the pdf, making it machine readable.

Whether or not the ATS can read it, I don't know.

I have gotten some response in the past that some people see europass as somewhat being lazy which is why I moved to latex. Also my CV got a bit too long with europass (2-3 pages I think).

I've never heard that. I want my CV to be a representation of what I can do, not how much time I spent making what I can do look good.

My resume was about 4 pages with Europass, but in the end the cover letter did the heavy lifting.
